Slashdot Mirror
Cannes' Palme d'Or goes to Michael Moore
An anonymous reader writes "The Palme d'Or of the Festival de Cannes was presented this year by Charlize Theron to Fahrenheit 9/11 by Michael Moore. I don't know if it's the first time this prize is awarded to a documentary, but I guess it's rare enough to be mentioned, especially given the problems this film encounters."
Last time Charlize Theron presented me with something it was a restraining order.
Do not try to read the dupe, thats impossible. Instead, only try to realize the truth
What truth?
There is no dupe
Subject says it all.
Now George, dont be like that!

Finally we know step #2 of the formula:
1. Steal underpants.
2. Paint anti-bush slogan on underpants, sell to Hollywood/Indie industry.
3. Profit!
I mean...Jacque didn't set up the fish so that they would present the image he desired.....or did he??
Blar.
Ah yes, fox "news". I can't believe one can say that with a straight face.
Yeah, I know what you mean...
Guns are good. The more, and the bigger, the better.
Corporate dominance of the working class is good, more is better. Besides, one day, I'll be rich too, so screw 'em!
Invasion of other nations (the biggest guns under corporate dominance) is the ultimate expression of what America is all about.
How dare anyone attempt to question any of this, let alone try to allow access to another's opinion?
Moore must be lying anyway, because he's kind of fat and sloppy.
Me? I'm embracing my inner reptile.
I believe everything the neocon media feeds me without question. It's so much easier that way.
Go team Bush! Go USA!
Fox News and thinking in one sentence? This is sarcasm right? And I fell for it again? It must be so!
Yeah, we should ban people from dressing different at work compared to their free time!
Yes, and since you saw the title of the front page link a force of unknown origin and great power took over your body and make you expand the thread.
Morons.
Coffee helps
Excuse the Unicode crap in my posts. That's an apostrophe, and slashdot is busted.
Who does he think he is, Fox News?
> You're so stupid you think beeing forced to walk around in female underware is the problem here?
He probably doesn't realize how many Slashdotters do that of their own free will!
Sheesh, evil *and* a jerk. -- Jade
> > He won not because of his movie, but because of his message.
> It's probably not even the message on it's own that won it for him. Rather, Disney's unwillingness to distribute the film with that message.
Heck, it's not even because of that. It's because of Moore creating a false scandal, when he knew all along (and he even admits this) that Disney would not distribute his film.
[PowerPoint] is a tool for capitalist presentation
"News for Nerds", Michael Moore, Cannes Film Festiacal...
I didn't realize these things were related.
That's right, citizens! If you aren't able and willing to quit your life-long chosen career and devote the next 20-30 years to building up political capital for a presidential run, you have NO RIGHT TO CRITICIZE OUR DEAR LEADER BUSH! So shut up, pay your taxes, vote the way we tell you to vote, and let Dubya's grand vision for world peace, democracy, and unlimited oil unfold!
I don't care if it's 90,000 hectares. That lake was not my doing.
Moore's prominent presence in the news brings to light some serious questions, such as 'Can't he at least try to look presentable?
